OT - I'm bored, Part Pangos & Bell!

[Comeds]

It's a good night in the DMV!!

I don't follow the O's anymore, but I'm happy for all those Baltimore fans who have to play in a division with two teams that buy division titles every year.

Hoping for an O's/Nats Series!

I would be happy with that!

Good baseball day for the Beltway. Congratulations to Nats and Os fans!

I am very excited that the Orioles will be on television and I won't have to also be watching the Indians to see it.

Make sure you find the correct channel

The two Wild Card games will air on TBS (AL) and ESPN (NL), the ALDS and ALCS air on TBS; the NLDS will air on Fox Sports 1, though two of those games will show up on MLB Network.

They're doing the MLBN thing again? Do they realize how idiotic that is? Can you imagine another league doing that in the postseason?

I am just going to record all the channels just to be safe.

The moment they announced that the Birds were Division Champs and Nick Markakis' reaction.

But I have been meaning to ask this all year - when did Nick get replaced by his evil twin from the Star Trek universe?

Deserves it for throwing high heat at a guy's head.

Three years ago today the Phillies clinched their 5th straight division title - this team has completely fell apart since - it makes me so sad

Wait...THE MLB SUSPENDED SOMEONE FOR THROWING AT A BATTER?


Please, let this be a trend. And again, not just for head shots.

Also: Bucccccooooooooos.


2.5 back on the Cards (who are playing the Brewers) for the Central, 3.0 back for the first wild card, and 1.5 up on the Brewers for the second wild card. Going to be an insane sprint to the finish seeing as they play the Brewers for three this weekend. My stomach is in knots thinking about it. Also have a four gamer against the Braves in Atlanta (who are slipping out of the postseason picture, but a huge series nonetheless). I love meaningful baseball, but man this is stressful.

Wouldn't it be nice if once in a blue moon instead of appealing the suspension and saying "I didn't do that," a pro athlete just said "I made a mistake and I'm sorry" and served the punishment doled out.

Probably because of their agents.

God damn lawyers.

Ray Rice was ready to do that, and then they changed the damn suspension. God Damned Ukranians.

Sorry, I mean God Damned Lawyers.

hardest thing for a GM is to know when to start letting some of the vets who brought them success go and replace them with new talent.

Well, we are talking about Ruben Amaro, Jr. here. He also doesn't understand player evaluation (which explains that Howard contract) or how to build a good farm system.

I love the Howard contract, but then again I'm a Mets fan.

Seriously...I suppose Chris Davis did this. Occasionally it happens. Then, occasionally, Ryan Braun types appear and try to make themselves into the victim.

He did. He did something wrong and stupid and deserves what he got. However from what I heard the last few seasons, unless more comes out, I still think he is a good guy and part of me felt bad he wasn't part of the celebration Tuesday.

Either way great night.
Markakis looking around as they made the announcement was something else.
Journeyman Steve Pearce getting choked up numerous times.
Adam Jones taking a lap and running out to celebrate with the groundskeepers.
Special night. I feel lucky to have been old enough to appreciate the 83 series win but 89 was my favorite season ever. Even if they lose right away this might be my new favorite.
